Personal Training At Your Fingertips

Fitness has been the talk of the town for the past decade. As someone who genuinely enjoys working out and has been documenting it sporadically on social media for better part of the decade, I can tell you convenience is the biggest motivation. When the weather is bad, you don't have the time, and life is hectic, first thing that gets tossed out of the window is the workout. That is one area I would say technology has truly simplified. We spend major chucks of our day on the phone, might as well put that good use, right? I was recently introduced to a new workout app: Ladder.

Ladder is an online personal training platform that provides people with the rewards and benefits of personal training at an affordable price point, and in a way that works with their schedule. Here’s how it works:

You sign up, and fill out your profile with preferences and a short survey about your lifestyle. Ladder then will match you with a real-life coach that meets your style – whether you need a cheerleader, an educator or a drill sergeant-style motivator, you will have a choice. I was matched with three trainers and while they all sounded great, I went with my instincts and chose Kerri. She has been my virtual (but very much real) trainer for the past month. I can chat with her and ask her questions and she gets back to me within a few hours. I usually let her know how my week is looking and she creates a workout plan for me accordingly. While I have access to a gym, while traveling I prefer to just do body weight exercises and Kerri is able to make a plan that works with my weekly commitments and travels.

You can also set weekly 'Promise' which is a health and wellness commitment to bring long-lasting change to your habits. For example, my promise this week is to eat salad with every meal.

If you ever wanted to try personal training, but stayed away due to the cost or inaccessibility to trainers outside a gym, Ladder is the app for you. Certified trainers work with you on your individual health and wellness goals, directly through your phone. Ladder makes it easy for you to find a trainer that has the personality and fitness background you need to be successful, and removes the stress and difficulty of finding your ideal fitness couch.

Winter is coming, and the warm summer weather is a distant memory, so everyone is going to want to spend their time indoors. While this is great for your video game backlog or Netflix queue, it’s more important than ever to stay active, especially with all of those delicious – albeit high-calorie, holiday meals. Might as well have a game plan in order ahead of time. Ladder is that perfect app, which brings personalized workout at your fingertips.

This is such an awesome way to get in or stay in shape! I love the idea of being able to use an app rather than have to pay a big, expensive gym membership and then a big expensive personal trainer fee on top of it.
